Janie, I joined in the last few months as well. This is a great venue for extracting Chipmunk information, but I have to agree it is not frequented like the Supercub.org Website.Thanks, and I hope to have N22DH ready for the trip from Wichita to Oshkosh.Champdriver

A very nice puff for the chipmunk, it looks super in Canadian colours and I love the bubble canopy. I am concerned at the bit in the article talking about pumping the brakes. Provided that they are set up right, if you need help on taxiing, then you apply one or two notches of brake when you set off and the appropriate wheel brake comes on as you push the rudder. Pumping the brakes on and off as you go along is a recipe for excessive wear and tear and a possible nose over- especially if you have the efficient Cleveland brakes rather than the original Dunlop.
